‘Anora’s Mikey Madison On Learning Russian And Portraying Sex Work Respectfully: “That Was The Ultimate Goal”


'Anora's Mikey Madison on doing her own stunts, learning Russian and portraying sex work respectfully: "That was the ultimate goal"

When Ani impulsively marries a rich but immature client (Mark Eydelshteyn), his oligarch father and mother descend from Russia in a bid to annul the union. And Luna [Sofía Miranda], who plays Lulu in the film, we became friends, and she’s wonderful and was so generous sharing stories and had such a great sense of humor about her job.
